2 Program Requirements and Procedures Applied Music Juries. All music majors, except those in the Music (Business) and Music (Music and Worship) degrees, will perform a jury in their applied performance area at the end of each semester in which they are registered for applied lessons. 2. The jury will be graded, and the grade will comprise up to one third of the final applied music grade. 3. All music majors will improvise as part of their jury. The improvisation requirement is determined by each area (piano, instrumental, voice, strings). 4. Students who perform a recital will be excused from that semester s jury.. Recitals. The Senior Recital is required for all music majors, except those in the Music (Business) and Music (Music and Worship) degrees. Seniors in the B.M. in Performance degree must present a full solo recital (approximately 60 minutes worth of music). Seniors in other music majors must present a half solo recital or joint recital (approximately 30 minutes of music per performer), though they may present a full solo recital with the approval of faculty. 2. All music education majors must perform their Senior Recital in the fall semester or in J-Term. 3. Juniors in the B.M. in Performance must present a joint recital or solo half recital (approximately 30 minutes) though they may present a full solo recital with the approval of faculty. 4. Additional recitals by music majors, and recitals by non-majors, require the approval of the music faculty. 5. A recital hearing is required for final permission for a student to perform in a recital on campus, whether the recital is required or optional. It is required to be completed three weeks before the recital date with two music faculty members present. The recitalist will perform pieces from his/her program on request. If the hearing is not passed, the recital will be postponed until the student is deemed prepared to present the program. Scheduling Procedures for and Recitals. The Department of Music Administrative Assistant coordinates scheduling of student performances. 2. Each student performer is responsible for scheduling his/her performance. performances are scheduled online through the Department of Music website. performance information must be submitted by noon on the Monday before the requested performance date. 3. Recitals are scheduled in March for the succeeding academic year. Students must make their request by filling out a form provided by the Department of Music Administrative Assistant. 4. For all programs the following information is required: complete title of selection(s) identifying opus number (or cataloguer s number) composer s full name composer s dates individual movements for extended works in more than one movement.. All music majors with the exception of Music (Business) and Music (Music &Worship) will enroll in MUSI 00,, each semester, except when student teaching. Although no credit is given for this course, a grade of Pass/Fail will be given and will appear on the transcript. 2. At the beginning of each semester, students will be given a schedule of Wednesday meetings of (generally 6 per semester) which students are required to attend, and at which, attendance will be taken.

First Year Evaluation. All students in the Department of Music at Messiah College will be subject to the First Year Evaluation. 2. This comprehensive assessment of the first two semesters will be conducted by the Music Faculty in order to review progress in the areas of musicianship, academic performance, and suitability to the profession. The Evaluation will occur after grades for the spring semester are entered. 3. More specifically, this evaluative process will consider grades earned in music courses and grades earned on semester juries as well as performance and professionalism in departmental ensembles and other organizations. 4. Students experiencing problems in the aforementioned areas will meet with their academic advisor and/or a representative panel of faculty members to devise strategies for improvement early in the fall of the second year as a music major 5. If the student is unable to correct issues raised by the faculty in a predetermined period of time, another meeting with the academic advisor will be scheduled to discuss options outside of the music major. Piano Proficiency Exam All music majors, except those in the Music (Business) and Music (Music and Worship) degrees, will register for Keyboard I in order to prepare for the Piano Proficiency Exam. Students who successfully pass the Piano Proficiency Exam at the end of the Fall semester will fulfill the other keyboard credit with any music course. Students who do not pass (or attempt) the Piano Proficiency exam in the fall will register for Keyboard II in the Spring semester. Students who do not pass the Piano Proficiency Exam at the end of the Spring Semester, will register for MUAP Piano lessons until the exam is passed. Students are allowed three attempts to pass the Piano Proficiency Exam. Ensemble Requirements for All Music Majors All Music Majors (B.A. / B.S. / B.M) are required to earn a specific number of credits in music ensembles (MUEN) to fulfill graduation requirements, based on degree type and concentration.

5 Guidelines for Mathematical Sciences Courses There is no specific math course required for Music majors. We recommend students enroll in MATH 0, MATH 02, or CIS 7 in their first year, unless you have had a pre-calculus course; then you should take MATH 07 or MATH 08. Statistical literacy is another important area of mathematical study, and STA 269 is a course that gives a good introduction to statistical methods and meets the QuEST requirement. Music Education Majors: Students in the Music Education major must take two mathematical science courses during the first or second year. Students are recommended to take CIS 7 and one other course from the following: MATH 0, MATH 02, MATH 07, MATH 08, or courses with an STA prefix. Students with Advanced Placement credit: Requirements for courses in mathematical sciences can be met through Advanced Placement exam credit. Students who have taken AP exams in calculus, computer science, or statistics should go to the math department s website ( to find out how credit is awarded for your scores. III. Music
